So as i told in another topic my dad gave me his Fender Stratocaster for my birthday yesterday and now i have taken some pics of it so you can all see what it looks like and what i changed wink.gif

This is how it looked before:



So as you see the white pickguard is not very white anymore the knobs changed color and if you notice the new pickguard is missing 2 holes for the pots so i had to drill those myself.



New pickguard, knobs, pickup covers installed



Tremelo cover was also faded so i changed it to a matching pearloid trem cover, the neckplate is also swapped to one with the fender logo on it.

Future plans new neck & bridge from the 2008 - 2009 american standard series, new jack cover and a Holy diver & irish tour HSS set from BKP.
